Riot Games

Teamfight Tactics Set 14, Cyber City is finally here. With the arrival of Patch TFT14.1, TFT Set 14 is finally on the live servers bringing players a brand new experience filled with new champs, new traits and new mechanics. 

Since the patch itself is essentially the importing of the new expansion, there are no balance changes to the champions and traits themselves as this is their debut patch. However, there are a ton of important system changes that are being updated for Patch TFT14.1 that players will want to educate themselves on. 

Here are all the new things coming to Patch TFT14.1 when it hits live servers on Wednesday, April 2.

Encounters are one of the returning things in TFT Set 14 that are getting an update in terms of what champions they represent, the odds of them occurring as well as what the actual encounters are.

Augments

By far, the biggest changes in Patch TFT14.1 are going to be the Augments. From set to set, there are only a few things that remain constant: core gameplay mechanics like items and Augments. With there being no changes to items in this set, Augments were the core focus of clean-up going into TFT Set 14. With that there a ton of changes to augments. The first is that many augments are leaving the game but are being replaced by some fan favorites. And for the augments carrying over set to set, a ton of them are being touched up to align themselves with the balancing in TFT Set 14.

Esports Impact

With Patch TFT14.1 being the kickoff patch for TFT Set 14, the race to Challenger is critical in the game's first patch, as adapting to a completely unknown metagame can have heavy rewards if players can capitalize on early developments. Getting to a high LP threshold will make it easier for players to qualify for tournaments as the set progresses, and doing that in the first patch is the way to go for players who are good at figuring out comps fast.
